In Washington, greed always comes first

Who is forcing the hand, of Republican congressmen in their refusal to remove their blindfolds and work with Democrats to stop this sequester? It can't be the vast bulk of Americans. It can't be the heads of defense and labor and transportation and education.

How can money be such a blindfold to our election officials, causing such recklessness, hurting so many, "protecting" so few? Something has to be dramatically changed. If Democrats also refuse to yield to any entitlement reform, that too is perilous. But more than $2.5 trillion in cuts were already agreed to.

It is hard to not blame, even our own Congressman Frelinghuysen, for not even once voting for anything other than what the extreme control of his party commands him to -basing his voting on money and politics, and not on sense and purpose. It's disheartening.
